Meanwhile over in the Asian Pacific region, there are now four
cyclones where yesterday there were only two.

6.3 M. 21degrees South. 179 degrees West. Fiji Region.http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/...quakes_all.php

We have had at least one earthquake at 6M. or higher since the Chilean
event. This one at least should be associated with the demise of a
supercyclone to the north of it.


Pearl Harbour Joint Typhoon Warning Centre.

South Indian Ocean area.

At 19:12, T. C. 04S was located near 10.3S. 76.8E, approximately 310
nautical miles SE of Diego Garcia,

Sea surface winds were estimated at 60 knots gusting to 75 knots.

Now called Bongwe:

Not quite an hurricane.(Category One Hurricane: 64-82 knots, 74-95
mph,or 119-153 km/hr.)

So, then there were two. Well, one and an half:

OK. Nearly one and one half.

Which doesn't explain the weather here.
Mind you, some 20 miles north west of here yesterday, the weather was
fairly bright. Coming back to Stoke though it was still dull and I was
greeted with a shower. OTOH, 20 miles NE the roads had been closed due
to snow.

Dull and cold where it should be sunny and cold. No severe storms to
explain it and the NEIC list shows a calming in Quakelands.

The time of the phase doesn't lend itself to Tornadoes or Derechos
(that could be an error on my part of course) which leaves volcanoes
and upper atmosphere lightning. Or something else I have yet to come
across.
